Study System: I'm a 38-Year-Old Student-Chapter 54 - 49: Like Father, Like Son (Double-Length - ) (Part 2)
In contrast to Shen Qiushan, who was relaxed, Zhang Yuting, known as the president of the Gossip Association, was quite nervous.
Because if she lost.
She would become someone else’s gossip material.
The classmates, on the other hand, had a watch-the-fun mentality. Ever since the last "show of strength," Shen Qiushan had gone into a dormant phase, not showing any sharpness.
Every day, he just nestled in his corner reading books, flipping through practice books and the like.
And often what he looked at were things from the first and second year of high school, seemingly starting over with high school knowledge content.
The students didn’t pay much attention to this, thinking this older companion student was just really bored.
After all, the study life in the third year of high school was too dull.
This time, it was Shen Qiushan’s first outing after his first display of strength.
Under everyone’s expectant gaze, Chen Xiangyu began the word dictation.
"Profit!"
With Chen Xiangyu’s voice.
The students began writing one after another.
Shen Qiushan calmly wrote down the English word for "profit": profit.
On the other side, Zhang Yuting, whether due to nervousness or simply not knowing, left the first word blank...
This time, Chen Xiangyu dictated a total of 60 words.
Shen Qiushan wrote down all of the first 50 words, leaving 5 blanks and one mistake in the last 10 words.
Clearly, Shen Qiushan did it on purpose, because he suddenly remembered the demands of Wang Yunpeng and the group of poor students after the last dictation.
If the old lover kept using him as a reference, and he got them all right, wouldn’t the whole class have to be punished with writing the words?
It’s best not to draw that kind of hatred; give those little brats a way out.
On the other side, the gossip president Zhang Yuting left 4 blanks and got 2 wrong out of what she wrote.
A total of 6 words wrong.
That is to say, she and Shen Qiushan tied.
Upon learning this result, Zhang Yuting also breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, she didn’t lose.
Otherwise, she would definitely become the subject of gossip.
"Same old rule."
"Anyone who misses more than 6 words, write each word 50 times."
Chen Xiangyu indeed brought out her old lover as a reference again.
But she had already noticed that Shen Qiushan deliberately missed 6 words.
But these 6 missed ones were just right for Chen Xiangyu.
Missing 6 out of 60 words was just the right benchmark for punishment.
There are more than two months left until the college entrance exam, and missing 6 out of 60 words in a mock exam was still considered a high error rate by Chen Xiangyu.
The first two periods today were both mathematics.
The class bell hadn’t even rung yet.
Math teacher Sun Xing walked into the classroom with a stack of test papers.
"Exam, two periods back-to-back."
"Wu Ruohan, hand out the papers."
Sun Xing handed the stack of test papers to Wu Ruohan and then asked Shen Qiushan, "Old Shen, are you taking the test today?"
"Yes!"
Shen Qiushan gave a definite answer.
He had been studying mathematics for a week and it was just the right time to check his learning results.
"Dad, don’t waste your time like this."
"Why not go for a walk on the playground; it’s good to exercise."
After morning training ended, Shen Yixiao whispered as he returned to the classroom.
"Just focus on doing your own test paper well!"
"You might even get a lower score than me!"
Shen Qiushan rolled his eyes at his son.
"Sigh, I finally figured out where my mysterious confidence problem comes from!"
"Turns out it’s hereditary..."
Shen Yixiao mumbled.
"Shut up!"
"Get ready to take the test!"
Shen Qiushan scolded in a low voice.
Shen Yixiao pouted unwillingly, thinking silently: Just a little more time being arrogant, after the competition, I can be free again!
The test papers were handed out.
Shen Qiushan started to answer the questions seriously. Before this, he had already done many practice books and mock test papers.
After solidly mastering all the basic concepts and formulas, Shen Qiushan was usually able to score over 80 points on mock test papers.
Plus, with the mass of questions he had worked on recently, Shen Qiushan felt his problem-solving skills had improved quite a bit again.
This time, the paper that Sun Xing handed out was a mock exam from a key high school in the neighboring province, and it was quite difficult.
Shen Qiushan found the basic questions very smooth, managed to write out almost all of the advanced questions as well, but for the high-level questions at the end, he had no clue.
After finishing the entire test paper, Shen Qiushan felt he should be able to score over 100 points, maybe even 110.
This is the power of cheating tools.
Just a week ago, Shen Qiushan was basically a math novice.
And today, a week later, on this rather difficult mock exam paper, he could already score over 100 points.
Shen Qiushan did the questions fairly quickly, and after finishing all of them, he still had 15 minutes left before submitting.
He glanced at his son next to him, this little rascal was scratching his head, looking like he couldn’t solve the remaining problems.
What made Shen Qiushan even more speechless was that this kid tore out four bits of paper from scratch paper, writing A, B, C, and D on them respectively.
After folding the slips, he shook them in his hand, mumbling some incantations, then scattered the slips onto the desk.
He picked one up randomly.
Upon unfolding it, the little rascal beamed and picked up a pen to enter the answer "chosen by heaven" onto the test paper.
Shen Qiushan rolled his eyes.
The end of mathematics is science.
The end of science is metaphysics.
So, mathematics = metaphysics?
This little rascal had really found a shortcut!
Shen Qiushan couldn’t be bothered watching this kid perform tricks, so after turning in his paper, he went straight to the restroom.
After relieving himself comfortably.
The bell for the second class break rang.
This period was a long break.
Every Monday they had to raise the flag.
Even the senior students who usually didn’t participate had to join.
So, students left the teaching building class by class.
But Shen Qiushan didn’t go downstairs.
Because shortly his rascal son would have to make a public apology in front of the whole school.
As a father, he felt embarrassed!
However, Shen Qiushan was not completely unaware; he found a vantage point in the corridor where he could see the flag-raising ceremony on the playground.
After about a dozen minutes.
Almost all the teachers and students of the school were assembled on the playground.
To the sound of the majestic national anthem, a bright red flag was slowly raised...
After the flag-raising session ended.
Director Xu Decai went up to the podium, took the microphone, and said gravely, "Today, there are only 86 days left until the college entrance exam!"
"Time is less than three months, it’s the most critical sprint phase..."
Scolding during ceremonies like the flag-raising is a tradition every school has.
The students listened with boredom, just hoping this lecture would end soon.
To the left and back of the podium.
Lin Xiamo was whispering with Principal Wang Guangqing, she pointed to Shen Yixiao waiting in the wings below: "Is that student giving a speech?"
The flag-raising ceremony is considered the most important ceremony in a school, being able to speak during it is the privilege of top students.
Or someone who achieved excellent results at a provincial or city-level competition.
On Lin Xiamo’s first day at work, she found her own nephew standing below the podium, holding a draft, clearly intending to speak on stage.
She was naturally very curious.
Thinking, did my nephew achieve good results in some sports competition?
Why didn’t Shen Qiushan say a word about it!
"Oh, what speech!"
Wang Guangqing waved his hand with a smile: "He’s making an apology!"
"The school caught him as an early romance example, to set a warning for others!"
"What?"
Lin Xiamo slightly raised her thin willow-leaf eyebrows, her mouth twitching instinctively.
She really didn’t expect her nephew to give her such a big surprise on her first day at work.
Such a surprise!!
"That kid was caught red-handed by Director Xu for early romance!"
"It’s said that when caught, his hand was still..."
At this, Wang Guangqing instinctively glanced at Lin Xiamo beside him with the corner of his eye, but swallowed the second half of the sentence.
If Lin Xiamo were just an ordinary female teacher, Wang Guangqing wouldn’t mind sharing a dirty joke.
But he couldn’t afford to mess with this Vice Principal Lin, nor dared to show any frivolity in front of her.
Being as clever as Lin Xiamo, she naturally guessed the general content of what Wang Guangqing left unsaid.
It was nothing more than something between teenagers.
She immediately frowned, sweeping her gaze in the direction of Class Five’s senior students, looking for that unreliable brother-in-law.
Unfortunately, his figure was nowhere to be seen in Class Five’s group.
This is how he educates the child!
Like father, like son!
